WALTON COUNTY, Ga. - A family is desperate for answers regarding a 25-year-old University of Georgia graduate who disappeared after leaving work as a pharmacy intern at a metro Atlanta Publix.

Alvin Ahmed was last seen leaving the grocery store in Loganville around 9:15 p.m. Monday after picking up some groceries for his mother.

Police say Ahmed's car was still in the store parking lot. It was unlocked and appeared to have been rummaged through. The groceries he bought on his way out of the store were still inside the car.

"The groceries were in the car, the white coat he wears was thrown in the back and the glove box was open," Lt. David Hunt of the Loganville police told Regan.

Ahmed's brother told Channel 2's Tom Regan it is out of character for the 25-year-old to not return home after work. Family members spent Wednesday handing out fliers to shoppers, seeking any help they can get.

"When my mom told me he didn't come home, we thought he went out or something," Kathy Ahmed told Regan. "That was not the case."
